Sixteen Divisions

Sixteen divisional ascendants studied from a very basic standpoint. Getting to know how the ascendants work in life is important as that is the staring point of studying the sixteen D-Charts. This is a start and details are available at the Parasara Jyotisa Course Year-2 http://parasarahora.com.

Putin’s Chart

In 1999, Russian president Boris Yeltsin dismissed his prime minister and promoted former KGB officer Vladimir Putin in his place. In December 1999, Yeltsin resigned, appointing Putin president, and he was re-elected in 2004. In April 2005, he made a historic visit to Israel—the first visit there by any Kremlin leader. Putin could not run for the presidency again in 2008, but was appointed prime minister by his successor, Dmitry Medvedev.

Pranab Mukherjee next President

Śrī Pranab Mukherjee is the presidential candidate of the ruling Congress Party while the other serious contender of the opposition is Śrī P.A.Sangma who was originally pushed by Naveen Patnaik and later supported by the BJP. Pranab Mukherjee has now got the support of Mulayam Singh (UP) and Bengal.

Ajai Bhambi gives a chart of Śrī Pranab Mukherjee with the date of birth as 1st February 1935 at 5.40’pm Kandi, India 88 E 02′, 23 N 57′.

Value of Tolerance

Introduction
As a natural state of mind, tolerance indicates an ability to coexist with others, to respect alternative points of view, to neither dominate nor be dominated. It suggests both the ability to be yourself as well as allow others that freedom. It is both sturdy individuality and acceptance of other points of view [Life Positive]. Suma Varughese writes that “Differences create gaps, but we need to reap love, not hatred, out of diversity. And to do so, we need to relearn the long forgotten value of tolerance”.
